VENICE, CA, MAY 30, 2012: Blik, the innovative maker of self-adhesive surface graphics, is locked, loaded, and ready to introduce our newest video game graphic, Space Invaders®.
The most influential shooting video game of all time has landed at Blik complete with the pixilated enemy aliens, mystery ships, and laser cannons.

Originally released to arcades in 1978, Space Invaders sparked a worldwide video game boom and is credited with the launch of the arcade phenomenon in North America. Made with Blik Re-Stik, Space Invaders by Blik are movable and reusable, allowing players to start a new game at any time. Space Invaders, exclusively owned by TAITO, is licensed and distributed in North America through Square Enix, Inc.

"The forerunner of modern video gaming, Space Invaders revolutionized video games from a novelty into a $68 billion industry. CPLG is thrilled to partner with Blik, an industry leader for this now iconic lifestyle brand," said Stephanie Gonzalez, Director of Licensing, CPLG.

"Growing up, I played Space Invaders at the corner arcade for more hours than I'd like to admit," said Scott Flora, Blik co-founder. "I still consider it one of the all-time great arcade games. It's exciting to reconnect with the brand and work with Taito to introduce Space Invaders to both old and new fans in a new medium."
